So my day started with a blue screen on turning the laptop on.
Rebooted and was presented with error 0xc0000098 relating to the windows Boot Configuration Data file not containing a valid os entry.
Laptop is encrypted using Safeguard 5.61.0.25 as deployed from the Enterprise Console so normal recovery procedures wouldn't work.
So I got hold of the WinPE disk from http://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/knowledgebase/108805.aspx for SGN client 5.60.0.192 and 5.60.1.7 as it was the most recent v5 one, fired it onto a disk and booted it up.
When I went through the C/R process, all seemed to go OK but I was still unable to see the contents of the hard drive.
So I opened up the command prompt and ran chkdsk /r against the drive.
Turns out there was about 100MB of bad sectors.
Once check disk had completed, I was able to see the contents of the drive within the PE.
I then ran the Bootrec /RebuildBcd command to repair the BCD file.
On reboot, windows starts up OK but when it tries to logon, I now get
"the current sophos safeguard policies do not allow you to log on"
Just wondering if there is an easy fix to this or will I have to copy all data off with the WinPE and reformat?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
